Realistically my job workload is like an 11-12 hour load, and I've seen people on the team do that. I've tried to keep it at 8, working non-stop, but I know I'm seen as a low performer and someone that does not go above and beyond but does the bare minimum. I feel like setup for failure. Even the whole evaluation is setup to where if you do a good job at your assigned duties you're a 3.
I've never had performance issues in my work history and all of the sudden I'm struggling and with the layoffs pending it literally feels like any effort is futile.
Worst part is that even if I had done the 11 hour days and worked my life off I probably would still be the first on the list, so at this point I don't even know if it matters, but I still feel like I have failed. The whole rating system is setup that way and in service to their whole layoff plans.
